Yesterday it was announced that President Obama has chosen the mayor of San Antonio, Texas, Julian Castro, to be the next Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Castro was tapped by Obama for another Cabinet office several years ago, but he declined that offer. The press is already speculating that the appointment is an attempt to raise Castro’s profile on the national level so that he can become the Democrat nominee for vice-president in 2016.
I surmise that the Democrats’ motives go beyond merely getting Castro on the ticket. They think that if they get Castro’s profile out there they can turn Texas blue for the 2016 election. Does my speculation make me a racist?
I ask this because racism is the branding that befalls any Conservative who makes a comment about any minority — even more so if the minority is himself a liberal. Cases in point:
We all have heard ad nauseam of the continuing controversy surrounding 81-year-old Clippers owner Donald Sterling, who made remarks to his girlfriend in a private conversation. She recorded his comments and publicized them, leading to the NBA owners’ organization trying to force Sterling to sell the team.
This week there was a story about Robert Copeland, the 82-year-old police commissioner of a New Hampshire town who called President Obama the “N-word.” Copeland later confirmed in an email that he used the term publicly, saying that the “current occupant of the Whitehouse” (sic) “meets and exceeds [his] criteria for such.” Some officials and residents in the predominantly white town are calling for the commissioner to resign.
